We want you to meet someone special on our team.

This is Dr. Adam Barefoot, our Chief Dental Officer. He's spent his career working to make sure good dental care reaches the people and places it usually doesn't.

Before joining us, Adam led national oral health work as Chief Dental Officer for HRSA, and before that, he served as Georgia's State Oral Health Director, building prevention programs that communities still benefit from today.

He was recently honored as a Fellow of the International College of Dentists, an award given to fewer than 3% of dentists worldwide.

What stands out most about Adam is his "why." Tooth decay is the most common chronic condition in the country, and the families who need care most are often the ones who can't access it.

His work helps bring mobile oral health closer to home, so care can meet people where they already are.

We're proud to have him with us, and even prouder of the communities his work helps reach.

Big congratulations to our friends at SIH Work Care, who just cut the ribbon on their new WorkCare mobile unit!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Instead of asking workers to take time off, find a ride, and travel across town for care, this clinic comes right to local employers around Marion, IL.

Workers' comp visits, physicals, and more, all delivered where people already spend their days.

That's what bringing care closer to home looks like, and it's going to make a real difference for workers and businesses across the community.

Way to go, SIH Work Care!

For families in rural towns, “just go see a doctor” isn’t always simple. It can mean driving an hour, taking time off work, or putting it off altogether.

Right now, there’s a real chance to change that. Through the Rural Health Transformation Program, states are opening funding this summer to strengthen rural care, and several windows are still open: Minnesota (June 30), Tennessee, Connecticut, Kansas, and Mississippi, with deadlines running through mid-July.

Many of these programs specifically support mobile clinics and Telehealth, care that meets people closer to home.

The hard work belongs to the local teams who know their communities best.

If your organization is thinking about applying, swipe through for the details, and if you’d like a partner to help think through a fundable, mobile-ready plan, we’re glad to help.

Healthcare. Everywhere.

There's a line in this clip from John Maxwell that sticks with you: stop asking "Can I?" and start asking "How can I?"

It's a good reminder for anyone who shows up to do hard things, and the people working to bring healthcare closer to their communities show up for hard things all the time.

They don't wait around wondering if it's possible. They figure out a way.

That's the kind of energy that fills the room at the 2026 Mobile Health Leadership Summit, happening August 24th - 25th in Colfax, NC.

Two days of people who care deeply about reaching folks where they are, swapping ideas and learning from each other.

Big thanks to GMMA for bringing everyone together. We can't wait to see you there!

Something special happened in Poplar Bluff this week.

Missouri Highlands Health Care celebrated the ribbon-cutting for their new Care Connect Mobile Unit, a clinic on wheels bringing primary, prenatal, maternal, and behavioral health care right into the heart of Southeast Missouri.

And the community showed up: the City of Poplar Bluff named June 9 “Women’s Mobile Healthcare Initiative Day.”

For so many families, especially women juggling care for everyone else, the hardest part of staying healthy is simply getting there. This unit helps change that.

Made possible alongside Aetna Better Health of Missouri and the Global Mobile Healthcare Research Consortium, it’s a real step toward care that’s closer to home.

You might know Layne Staley as the voice of Alice in Chains, one of the most unforgettable sounds to ever come out of Seattle. What a lot of folks don’t know is that his story didn’t end in 2002.

His mom, Nancy McCallum, and fans from all over the world kept his memory going through the Layne Staley Memorial Fund, helping people in Seattle struggling with addiction.

Now that legacy is rolling out on four wheels.

Our dear friends at Therapeutic Health Services are launching the Layne Staley Mobile Medical Unit, bringing medication-assisted treatment right to the tiny home villages run by the Low Income Housing Institute around greater Seattle.

No long bus rides. No figuring out where to go. Just care, showing up where people already are.

To everyone at THS, Patricia Edmond-Quinn, and to Nancy McCallum, thank you for turning love into something that will help so many people. As Layne’s mom said, who you are and what you do matters.

Picture a kid who can see a doctor without leaving school. A family that doesn’t have to drive an hour for care. That’s what school-based health looks like in West Virginia, and the teams making it happen are the real heroes of this story.

We got to celebrate that work this week at the West Virginia School-Based Health Conference in Charleston, and we were genuinely surprised and grateful to be named the 2026 WVCA School-Based Health Community Impact Leader.

The award was presented to us by our dear friends, Preston-Taylor Community Health Centers, Inc.

Getting to share that moment with people we care about made it all the more meaningful.

Maria Ferraris accepted for the team, with Jess Hughes there too, and tomorrow Maria is presenting “Driving Care Outward and Forward: Mobile Operations and Sustainability.”

To everyone in West Virginia helping care reach kids and families: thank you for letting us be part of it. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Big day in Poplar Bluff!

This morning, Missouri Highlands Health Care celebrated the ribbon cutting for their brand-new mobile clinic, one that’ll bring prenatal, postpartum, primary care, and maternal mental health services right into rural Southeast Missouri communities.

And here’s the part we love: it’s open to everyone who needs it, no matter their insurance.

So many good people made this happen, including Aetna Better Health of Missouri and the team at GMHRC Global Mobile Healthcare Research Consortium. But the heart of it is Missouri Highlands, doing what they do best: caring for their neighbors close to home.

The clinic hits the road soon, with the first community stop at Town and Country Grocery in Piedmont on June 29.

Congratulations to everyone who poured into this one. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Behind every program we support are people like Mollie.

Mollie Williams, DrPH, MPH, is our VP of Evidence and Insights.

Before joining us, she spent nearly a decade leading The Family Van, a mobile clinic at Harvard Medical School, in Boston, and directing the Mobile Health Map, the largest national network of mobile health programs.

What we love about Mollie is how she thinks about this work. To her, mobile healthcare has always been "a quiet force for equity, built by people who go where the need is greatest" the local teams showing up where care is hardest to find.

She helps us make sure every program we support can show real results for the communities it serves.

We're so lucky to have her a part of our team!
